Abstract
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) offers a broader assessment of cardiac structure and function than any other single imaging modality. In patients with known or suspected ischemic heart disease (IHD), a comprehensive CMR protocol provides an assessment of left ventricular function, myocardial perfusion, edema, and viability in a single sitting. There are applications for this technology in both the acute and chronic IHD settings. CMR is also a valuable tool in the assessment of patients presenting with chest pain, raised troponin levels, and unobstructed coronaries.
